“A Hard Rain’s A-Gonna Fall,” was inspired during the time of the Cuban Missile Crisis, he “wrote that [song] when I didn’t figure I’d have enough time left to die, didn’t know how many other songs I could write, during the Cuban thing. I wanted to get the most down that I knew about into one song, the most that I possibly could, and I wrote it like that. Every line is actually a complete song, could be used as a whole song. It’s worth a song, every single line.”**
